How to use the client object model with SharePoint2010

1. Create a Console application in visual studio and add the following references to the project.

2. Insert your code as below

            ClientContext context = new ClientContext("http://demo2010a");
            Web currentWeb = context.Web;
            context.Load(currentWeb, web => web.Title);
            context.ExecuteQuery();
            Console.WriteLine(currentWeb.Title);
            Console.ReadLine();

3. Run your code then you will get the web title displayed as shown below
